   Less than 40% or more than 70% of your energy -- or calories -- coming from carbohydrates was associated with the greatest risk of mortality. Eating moderate levels between that range offered the best options for a healthy lifespan.
   
   The lowest risk of an early death was seen where carbs made up 50-55% of a person's diet, according to the study published Thursday.

   Oh hey, orthodox dietary recommendations that have existed for decades are well supported by evidence, that's a real shocker. I really thought a cult fad diet held the secrets to longevity. Who could have seen that one coming?
